Crosstown cup game 2!
#BecauseItsTheCup
Rodon vs Lackey
Sox 1 away from defending the cup
Can the impossible happen?
Lackey is old expired garbage
>yfw dwight's ox win da BPc up
>>77302651
Pretty sure the only people that care about the cup are the local sports radio idiots who still think the Bears n Packers are still a huge rivalry
>>77302681
The BP Cup is a valued tradition in our city ever since it was so aptly introduced by the oil disaster company BP which so fittingly described both teams at the time.
Its holds a special hilarious place in our hearts.
>>77302706
Wow! Mike North is in dis thread
Something to get those neurons firing
>Last game's attendance
Wrigley Field: 40,849
Guaranteed Rape: 23,088
>Average resale Ticket price
Wrigley Field: $150.63
Guaranteed Rape: $26.05
Why can't the White Sux fill up their stadium when their tickets cost 6 times less?
>start time 1:20
>>77302818
>game hasn't even started and the lifelong fan wants to bring up attendance
hmmm
>>77302845
>refuses to answer the question
What are you scared of sweetie?
>>77302681
670 was fucking hilarious last night. That faggot little jew spiegel had to stop the show because all the callers into the show were white sox shit talkers or Nov 16 Lifelongs complaining about how the cubs aren't as good as the dodgers.
>attendance = baseball
It's a Cubs thread alright.
based soupy throwing first pitch
>>77302845
dont respond
>>77302872
>little
>>77302881
>fanbase doesn't matter!
5 MILLION FANS
>>77302872
I stopped listening to 670 yrs ago. Laughed my ass off when I heard that all the on air talent who claimed for years to be lifelong south side sox fans, turned into instant lifelong Cusb fans
time for another shitfest
>>77302903
Compared to Jiggetts he is tiny
>>77302908
Fuck rongey anyways always hated him
Connor McKnight is the man now.
Here's hoping the ump isn't blind and retarded like the ones the Cubs got was yesterday.
Dr. Reinsdorf, I'm CEO

>>77302918
>>77302903
just a fat disgusting slob both inside and out.
>can barely fit inside a broadcast booth, still continues to drink soda

Your team is only as strong as your fans.

>still going on about unfair umping just because your players chimped out about it
>>77302937
The sox had the same ump
we both want roboumps
>>77302970
tfw mummy took you from northwestern to see the cubs win it all
>>77302989
fatass detected
>>77302989
Fat people deserve shame.
t. a fat person
>>77302955
Uh, you don't get to bring friends.
>>77302989
go have some buona beef ya fat piece of shit
I thought BAJP was banned
anyways here we go
LETS GO RODON
>>77303025
Is buona beef even any good?
>>77302998
Call me when those shitty strike calls against the Cubs aren't strike 3.
Friccin beaned
>>77302908
I still listen, but only to laugh at the morons who call in. Cubs fans and Sox fans who call in are both equally stupid A typical 670 caller talking about baseball:
Caller: Yeah Bernstein, Love U!!
Bernstein: Love ur suit. Whats up Dan from oak lawn?
Caller: If we trade Bryant, Rizzo, and Contreras or Abreu, Cabrera, and Frazier for Bryce harper and Aaron Judge...Would that garantee us a World series?
Bernstein: Kill me then kill yourself. Next caller
Pls fite
>hitting abroo
>Lackey beans Aboo boo in order to get a double play to end the inning faster
A master tactician.
>avishit
whens the last time he actually did anything?
Post your teams
Astros Dodger fan here!!!
>>77303074
Disgusting
>>77303074
This has to be bait right?
>No first inning runs in 11 games
It's the little things that add up
>>77303084
Batboy? moar liek FATBOY.
AMIRITE?
>>77303087
Feels really fucking good.
Rodon pls
Get those control issues under control
>timmay
wtf
>>77303084
no other games on until 7pm, it's fucking tuesday ffs but due to the chicago crime rate the city ordinance only allows so many night games
might as well watch
Rodon fucking pls
>Rodon throwing at Byrant
Absolute scum.
>>77303130
More like throwing out
>>77303130
That was a set up pitch
Umps squeezing Rodon there
or is it just terrible framing?
RIP
Go the whole game without replying to Cubs posters.
WILLY STRIKES!
>moncada is a bust
>rodon is a bust
>anderson is a bust
Aw fuck
Rodanks pls
sasuga rodon
Justice for Willy getting screwed by the ump yesterday.
Willy is smoking HOT
Arguably better than Posey atm?
>>77303191
lol
Goddamn it Rodon youre supposed to be one of the good ones that we still care about instead od cussing out incessantly like holland or shields...
>The Who could have gotten a hitting machine like Schwarber
>They go with this chump of a pitcher instead.
F R E E
W I L L Y
>>77303213
>hitting machine like Schwarber
>>77303213
>hitting machine
Isn't schawrber batting .182
>>77303213
>hitting machine
>hitting .180 (would be lower if not demoted)
latodunnber
I still believe in Rodon
Its the injury ans subsequent missing half a year+ST that fucked him...
damn it this is depressing
I dont give a fuck if pelfrey or holland or shields get shelled
but seeing rodon shelled is just...
too sad
>>77303213
Did you forget that Theo wants to offload him and begged Hahn to take him?
He still struck out the side at least?
>>77303232
>>77303233
>>77303238
>Didn't see him in the Worlds Eries.
>>77303246
>Believing those lies
Come on Moncada
please get us started
>>77303267
We can't get to the world series, someone who can only hit there is worthless
>>77303246
Please do, Theo. There is bound to be one stupid enough AL team that'll take him.
>bustcada
>>77303279
>Someone who only hits during the biggest series you can ever play is worthless
>>77303267
>defending a has-been
Well thats your choice. I could care less what your opinion is of him.
0-2 timmay single
thats surprising
>>77303304
The point is that the sox don't ever play said biggest series so hes worthless to us
Holy shit, Hawk broke
>>77303309
>3 years career
>has been
You boys really are butthurt that the Who went with this bust of a pitcher over Schwarber
>>77303319
>hes worthless to us
That applied to every player on your roster.
Engel pls
>>77303171
>>77303171
>>77303171
Reminder to take the upper road and ignore their classlessness.
>>77303349
Schwarber career WAR: 2.1
Rodon career WAR: 4.5
>>77303290
I still think he would be a great hitter for an AL team as DH. He was already to fat and slow to be an NL starter. Now with a bum knee he's useless and it shows.
>>77303336
Not watching on TV, what happened?
>looking at the 3-1 fastball right down the middle
AND THEN SWINGING AT THAT SHIT OUTSIDE
FUCK
kek, nice
>rodon hits a 2 run double while a lifelong is calling him a bust
k e k
BASED RODON
>>77303376
When they pulled the hit and run on Narvaez's AB, he couldn't form a coherent sentence for like 30+ seconds.
RODON ATONING FOR HIS OWN MISTAKES
HOLY SHIT
>>77303336
>>77303376
Also need to know
>>77303376
Its an interleague game that looks like an AL game
FUCKING RODON
reminds me of that Fatt Albers double last year
EV of 104mph for Rodon there
He mad
why isnt he retired already?
>>77303416
Make him the DH
>>77303412
I remember that, it was dope.
>>77303412
I remember that shit. That was on my birthday.
>>77303366
Schwarber rings: 1
Rodon rings: 0
Maybe Rodon should just be the who's DH instead of a pitcher. He's clearly better at that.
>>77303426
>>77303412
pretty much the highlight of his short time with us
stop replying to it. the absolutely pathetic need to talk shit to a club thats dead last in the AL. no purpose. ignore it all.
>>77303444
He really isn't bright
>>77303429
>6.75 ERA
Rodon helping us not miss Yolmer too much
Now don't give them back Rodon
>>77303429
Can't you trip up or something? Honestly I don't think either Cubs or Sox fans can stand you at this point mate so just trip up so we can filter you if you're gonna keep acting like a knob.
>>77303444
>Can't handle the bants
Why are you here?
>>77303465
This. Based swedecub
>>77303435
he was an absolute madman
>>77303471
cause I got nothing else to do but root for my said dead last place team to try and perform well or at least the important players to perform well
Rodon pls
>>77303471
The banter is awful
Rodon still getting squeezed/shitty framing
come on
>Don't swing even once during the at bat
>Get walked
Brilliant plan by Lackey.
Rodon FUCKING PLS
>>77303506
Lackey aint no prize either. At least Rodon can hit the ball to help his own cause.
>walking Lackey on 5 pitches
>ERA INCREASING
>walking Lackey
Luck on Lackey day? Impossible.
FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK
I TOLD YOU NOT TO GIVE IT BACK
Time for Byrant's vengeance.
>>77303537
Wow. Rodon only gave him 1 strike. I didnt realize he was that bad. Lackey barely knows what a bat looks like.
FUCKING FUCK COME THE FUCK ON RODON
WHY
welp
>>77303465
I honestly feel bad about you guys. We as fans deal with them for only four games plus one or two when the Sox are getting no hit or losing by double digits whenever it feels insecure. You guys have to deal with them for 162 games.
Byrant Pls...
>every out by Rodon so far is a K but he's given up 4 runs
>>77303595
57 pitches thru 1.2ip
Still dont know what Sox fans are angry about. Your season was a typical Cubs season before 2014. By 2020 when all the contracts are set to run out it will be again.
>>77303608
2-3 more years of tanking
>>77303608
Rodon is supposed to be an Ace in said future
>>77303595
Lackey and Rodon are literal doppelgangers. Lackey is shit but for some reason he still gets tons of Ks
>>77303608
I'm upset because the two big pieces of our rebuild that are currently on the major league roster (Rodon and Moncada) are struggling hard. Don't care about the season as a whole.
And should have been a walk.
>>77303622
Don't care about that
>>77303629
This sums it up perfectly
>ball 3 was obviously strike 3
>strike 3 was obviously ball 4
pitch 5 shoulda been strike 3
pitch 6 was just a makeup call
at any rate again looks like umps are shit on both sides
http://www.brooksbaseball.net/pfxVB/zoneTrack.php?month=7&day=25&year=2017&game=gid_2017_07_25_chamlb_chnmlb_1/&prevDate=0725
This is really not a good look for the umps. Yesterday was pretty shitty too.
These umps are pretty bad. For both sides.
>>77303575
Eh, the three responsible usually behave at a barely acceptable level. Past two weeks have been pretty annoying though.
>>77303626
I think if he sorts his control he'll be an ace desu. And if he has a catcher that doesn't rob him of the strikes he does manage to throw.
>>77303629
Moncada is still fresh, no need to stress mate.
>>77303629
>(Rodon and Moncada) are struggling hard
>Why isn't a pitcher coming off the dl in the middle of the season pitching gems every game???
>why isn't a rookie who has barely played more than 10 games hitting home runs every game???
>woo is me!!
>>77303629
I forget, wasn't his Spring Training limited because of the injury? He's been back for about a month now, and it seems he's still ironing shit out. It doesn't excuse his current play, but it's something to think about.
>>77303605
Might as well call this game over now
Cause the """""relief"""" pitchers will be in by the 5th and the game'll end 17-4 or someshit
>>77303608
>lost 89 games in 2014, last in division
Nov 16 Lifelong detected
>>77303629
Rodon only has 2 1/2 yrs in the bigs and an avg ERA of 3.75. On a rebuilding team that doesnt really sound bad
>>77303647
>>77303658
oh boy, here's to another repeat of yesterday should the sox tie it.
>>77303695
>>77303676
Its his control issues that freak me out the most
Also we were kind of overhyped on his 80 grade slider
>>77303690
This is why no one likes Sox fags.
Lackey slices thru the heart of the order
>did he remember how to pitch?
>dunnvidson
>>77303690
Sox fans should be lucky they don't have to deal with opposite field bandwaggoners like this guy.
>>77303735
I kind of know that feel from dealing with Blackhawks and bulls bandwagoners. most of the latter are gone now. In fact some "DIEHARD ROSE 4 MVP JIMMY G BUCKETS" bulls """fans""" I know are proudly proclaiming themselves to be twolves fans now.
shits fucked.
>>77303756
DWADE4LYFE
>>77303690
Although they only won 70 something games in 2014 they were on a huge upswing. If you actually paid attention you might know something.
Enjoy another (You)
>>77303756
Embrace the Finnish Dirk era.
>that wild lack of control
almost hit him rodon stop that
>>77303756
Bulls Basketball is gonna be torture come October.
And now hes getting hammered again
Fuck
>>77303767
I know a couple lifelong Bulls fans and a couple bandwagon Bulls fans. All of them bought Cleveland jerseys when the Bulls signed Wade
>>77303787
Bulls "basketball"
>>77303787
Couldnt possibly be worse than this season
Little chance of making a pointless 8 seed next season
>>77303814
a thing of beauty
>>77303799
>>77303787
>>77303772
>>77303767
>>77303756
That moment when a Eries champion team is underacheiving and the crosstown team is rebuilding, and they both agree the Bulls suck
First nonK out
come on Rodon
Baez trying to hit the ball 500' on each swing
>Beaz still keeps swinging at EVERYTHING
Baez is shit just like I said the other day. Worthless meme faggot.
>the city of this ump
I'll take it
8 Ks through 3 IP
but the hits and runs though
>8 fucking k's through 3
God damn just get that control together rodon
>>77303844
Who is the pitching coach over there? Rodon has 8 Ks in 3 innings. I see nothing wrong with this kid that a halfway decent coach cant figure out.
>>77303895
>78 pitches thru 3
>>77303900
Don Cooper, he's one of the two great things about our coaching staff.
>>77303900
Coop
one of the best
Like I said earlier, I still believe in Rodon. Its just missing over half the season and recovering from injury isn't helping this season
>>77303768
>2014
21st in team pitching ERA
21st in team batting OPS
You just KNEW it was all gonna come together !
Wow you are such a bandwagoning shit-piece of a baseball fan.
Moncada pls
>>77303913
If Rodon finishes with over 12-15 Ks today (which looks extremely doable), you should really reconsider that statement
>>77303919
I hate the fanbase I am part of. The Cubs didn't start 2015 that well either, the first month or two was fairly average. Everyone expected them to be good within a couple years but I'm not sure anyone expected them to turn into a juggernaut overnight
>>77303930
leadoff walk ill take it
>>77303936
I'm not picking up what you're putting down.
Gohan once again gets on base
neat
>>77303936
thats not doable at all given his pitch count though...
>hawk, heard this exact gordan beckham story word for word about 50 times in the last two years
>anderbust
Engel bitte
Damn it
Can Rodon do it again?
>>77303919
-Only won 60 games previous 2 years
-Avg player on roster was rookie to 2yrs in the bigs and playing well
-Future MVP Bryant just waiting for the call to get a suit and get on the bus
You are just a know nothing piece of shit in general.
kys
This game seems boring. Gonna play vidya. GG cubes
>>77304015
course not
leadoff walk, not so dreaded, nothing of it
dang
>>77304022
Yeah because Bryant being an elite player is a sure thing when he hadn't played a single major league game, huh?
Please end your life and make our fanbase a little more tolerable
zone still wonky
doesnt help at all
>old man zobrist steals a base
wat
My God, these WS broadcasters are salty as fuck about that ball
>>77304104
its hawk
umps are his mortal enemy
>>77304099
even as a white sox guy i can't dislike zobrist, guy's a back to back world champ that ended 138 years of drought
he ded
>>77304072
My first statement was that 2014 was their upswing year and you have yet to prove me wrong. I knew they would finally make the playoffs but never said nor expected them to be wearing a ring 2 yrs later so ur wrong on that as well. You'll go back to wearing ur Carpenter Cardinals jersey come 2020 and thats OK, it really is. Just stop pretending
>>77304131
wsmvp to boot
>>77304120
HAwk is such a cunt
>that pretty boy Bryant luck
injury delay what happened?
10 k's
Ejections a plenty
>That strike
wow that was not even remotely a strike
Rodon got a break there
At least of game day is to be believed
>>77304104
At least they aren't as terrible as the Cubs boring as watching paint dry duo. I love the Cubs, but I can't take Kermit the frogs voice and four hours of bad dad jokes!
>>77304155
it really sucks it had to be with the crosstown team AND the sox most disliked division rivial though
LOL GET FUCKED KRIS
>>77304153
>>77304072
>>77304022
>>77303919

>>77303690
>>77303608
Quit samefagging you fucking Dodgers fan. kershaw is busted and your season is OVAHH!
>>77304189
everyone acknowledged it was a ball except for barksdale
>>77304189
It was pretty bad.
>>77304156
Eat some pine Bryant!
>>77304189
at least if gameday*
damn it
>>77304201
Don't lnow about you but my most dislikes div rival is still the twins
even the tigers couldnt unseat that
and royals were just a good team beating up on our garbage
Unpopular opinion time: He just got a hit but am I the only one who thinks Rizzo is just a tad bit overly overrated?
Rodon pls
>>77304237
Apparently
he was 4th in NL MVP voting last season
of coz, like most every cub except for heyward baez and contreras, he's having a subpar season
Coming to these gamethreads makes me want to end my life. I fucking hate every Cubs fan that I have to share a gamethread with every single game. Besides Sweden, who is based.
>>77304223
Bring back the Brewers and send Detroit back to the east, it was better that way!
>11ks
wew
>>77304223
Thats funny as hell man. Ive never disliked the Sox, but the Twins have never been on my radar for most disliked team. the 91 Eries was some good baseball
and he strikes out the side again
holy fuck
some bipolar ass pitching here but uh good Rodon?
>>77304280
>4 runs in 4 innings
>no control
>100 pitches in 4 innings
Yeah no he blows
>>77304280
does he come out to pitch the 5th?
>98 pitches thru 4
>>77304237
He's a bit over-rated, not to say he isn't good, just not as good as they try to make him out to be.
Though someone compared him to Pierzynski the other day and I can't stop thinking about how they have similar attitudes.
>>77304261
I guess I'm still hung up on the fact he was supposed to be co-mvp but only had 1 hit the entire NLDS last yr
>STRETCH
>>77304297
doubt it
>>77304295
yeah that part sucks
at least we can say he has his wipeout pitch working?
FIGHT DO IT
>>77304223
I definitely remember getting fucked over by the twins late 00s, though the blackout game is such a standout memory since the twins havnt won a pennant this century
we wuz kangz of comedy central, no one had won a WS since 05 and the royals took that away
but a lot of the times we lost the division to the twins or tigers was due to to our atrocious record vs the royals the last 10 years, especially at kaufman.
then throw in some wild mexicans attacking their first base coach and deafening him for life, and shark and sale in a wild brawl with them and trying to fight them in their locker room
>>77304295
>>77304297
For his third(?) game back and as bad as he was in those, I'll take this and the loss, as long as he keeps getting better.
I hope he comes back, win or lose he needs to get some more pitches and he's at least managing better than he's been doing.
>hitting abroo again
uh
lackey sperging on the mound again
>sweet bepi intensifies
HAWK IS OUT FOR BLOOD
fucking savage wants beer and chicken man's head !!!
>lackey is based desu
DO SOMETHING AVISHIT
>>77304359
Wish he'd have taking that bat to Lackey's face.
2 outs 1 man on 2nd, Lackey pitching in the 5th. Sox tie it here
DINGERSON PLS
Kick his ass
> lackey
Throw his ass out of there, ump
MAKE
HIM
FUCKING
PAY
MONCADA
>hitting the bases loaded
What the actual fuck
holy fuck, i dont know if I've seen anything like this
No TV or radio in site. Tell me there is a fight after 3rd HBP
FUCK OFF YOU SCUM
>Lackey Day
>>77304432
Southside payback starting tomorrow.
>tfw Hawk waits for Lackey in the parking lot and beats the shit out of him
ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME
THEYRE FASTBALLS TOO
WHAT THE FUCK
FUCK YOU TIMMAY YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO MAKE THEM PAY
>>77304446
That would work out so poorly for Hawk.
Lackey might be pushing 40, but he's a big mean asswipe.
Just hit everyone until Timmy comes up, perfect strategy.
>>77304450
They're prefect too
They all think its just an inside pitch and it clips them on their arm as they load up
>White Sox broadcasters actively saying they want to see Lackey get drilled in the head
>More Lackey tactics
>>77304482
Its just Hawk - he's senile, cut him some slack
>>77304482
>missing the part where he suggested that they "get him after the game, where no one can break it up"
>>77304482
Hawk is problems
you should listen to Ed
>>77304472
Hawk would take him, I have not doubt.
Load the bases with 3 HBP. Get no runs.
Im a Cusb fan and even Im discustard at this.
>Hawk: I'd like to see Tim hit one right through the middle on knock Lackey right off that mound
He ACTUALLY just said this on live TV
>>77304515
What's wrong with that? Aiming to hit up the middle is a good strategy.
>>77304508
Lackey would demolish that old retard.
6'6" 245 vs old man with dementia
sweet blood
>beck
yep this games over
GG cubs
I fucking hate this shit
goddamn lackey is shitting on us, 4 HBP-2 on our "star" 3 in the same inning. then some scrawny negro hits a little league grounder to short...
>>77303936
Rodon finishes with 11 Ks. I was only 1 off. They should have kept him in the game to drill the Cubs batter and THEN taken him out
>>77304539
Old man with dementia strength. One hit and Lackey is down, he's a mental stub.
FUCK YOU BECK
WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING
>>77304515
it's fucking awesome, he's just an old fuck that is retiring and doesn't care
>Meaty Ass with a stolen base
>>77304561
Agreed.
I really don't like what's coming with this game. Last thing the Sox need is to start a fight.
>White Cux chimp out
>>77304590
yeah
and also free baserunners are the last thing this bullpen needs
Time for Baez to K again
>>77304590
I like it. Bring some passion to the series.
I can understand retaliation. Its shitty because the fielders have nothing to do with Lackey being a douchebag, but I understand it.
But Ian Happ? FFS man! Hit Rizzo or Contreras or even Zobrist. I always feel bad for the innocent dweeb player who dindu nothing wrong other than to be the first guy up to bat
"CWS shortstop Tim Anderson DFA to Triple A Charlotte after being benched midgame vs CHC. Corresponding move to be named later."
>>77304619
I want to believe that that was Beck being shit and not retaliation because we dont need to be giving up free baserunners in a 2 run game. But then again Ricky has done lots of questionable things already so who knows.
>>77304590
This --> >>77304609
A good scrum is great and it clears up some bad blood. 2 games left in Comiskey you know a riot is coming.
>>77304619
Oh please why the fuck would Lackey intentionally nail 3 batters in a row you shitter
If Lackey doesn't get brushed back then White Sox are pussies
>>77304539
I don't think anyone on the sox could take him in a fight.
>>77304639

There was no way to throw at him, that would have been fully retarded.
I would have had to take a month off watching the Sox if he got a hit there.
>>77304625
I wish. I get it that Tim's still ironing it out but he is pissing me off.
Thank you beck for not sucking too much
camt say the same dor the next inning
>>77304678
Oh no the White Sox might lose another game
>>77304679
It hasn't been comiskey in ages. Get with the times grandpa it's not even like that was the directly previous game
>>77304713
Fuck you some of us want to see them not suck sick horribly every single fucking game
you think the "tank" shit is serious? It's usually said in disgust after we lose.

Remember, he is a leaf
who is hoping for #5 here desu?

Go back to calling the game hawk and try not to have a stroke

Save us Josavior
>>77304834
need the backstory on this anything to do with:
>Everett is quite outspoken with his beliefs, and his remarks have proven controversial on several occasions. Perhaps the best-known of these was his denial of the existence of dinosaurs. He was quoted as saying, "God created the sun, the stars, the heavens and the earth, and then made Adam and Eve. The Bible never says anything about dinosaurs. You can't say there were dinosaurs when you never saw them. Somebody actually saw Adam and Eve eating apples. No one ever saw a Tyrannosaurus rex." He also derided fossils of dinosaur bones as man-made fakes.[3] In reference to these comments, Boston Globe columnist Dan Shaughnessy dubbed Everett "Jurassic Carl." Everett, in turn, referred to Shaughnessy as the "curly-haired boyfriend" of Globe beat writer Gordon Edes.[4]

GOD FUCKING DAMN IT I HATE THIS GAME SO FUCKING MUCH
I could really do without either Hawk's temper and Benetti's autism. They're both insufferable 90% of the time. Steve Stone is exceptional and I could solely listen to him announce the games.

I work at UIC. The West Side is easily worse than the south side nowadays. When you hear about the muggings and flashmobs on Michigan Ave, its west side niggas doing it.
I had to piss really bad during that Sox at-bat and it felt so good to finally let it out just now.
Hawks doing the series at guarnteed rate also isn't he?
>from no clutch to beck
Fuck this game so fucking much.
Holy SHIT did you see that curveball?
>>77304986
did it hit someone?
>>77304930
I don't mind his temper, just the same fucking ted williams stories ovah and ovah again and again...
Solo Stone would be awesome.
>>77304944
Fuck man, chicago UIC, you have a math or stats diploma from MIT for that job? I can't imagine the sheer amount of data you need to process. What statistical package do you use? I'm trained in SPSS and STATA.
I listen to the CPD police scanner during "Robert" hours and it's pretty damn hilarious. I don't know the city well enough to know where there majority of the dispatches are located.
fuck you beck
>>77304930
I like Benetti. I've been watching the Angels just to see Trout play, the Yankees just to see Judge play, and the Red Sox just to see Sale play this season and all of their announcers are so fucking lifeless. Benetti may overuse his dorky puns but he's at least having fun up there. The only thing I don't like about him is that he's often slow to react to plays.
fucking kill yourself
>>77304890
While the Cubs were playing in DC, they had to visit the Trump White House, which was odd because they already had more formal championship ceremony with Obama..
Needless to say A LOT of Cubs skipped out on going citing various reasons from 'visiting once a year is enough' or 'family and friends'. Edwards reason just jumped out there.
>And reliever Carl Edwards Jr. opted to see other sights around the city, instead. “I’m trying to go see like the dinosaur museums,” he said.

And that should do it
GG boys see you tomorrow
Are we watching Hawk or Benetti tomorrow?
Best NL catcher
I hope they hit a line drive into his skull

Walking Rizzo to get to Willy seemed like a good idea at the time I guess
meh. doubt we're gonna come back in this game
>Willy with RBI #4
>That whole situation of JD and Len outting the ballboy.
I almost feel bad that the Who are stuck with a looney like Hawk. Almost.
>>77305096
so many chances too already and failed on them
now the bullpens just gonna bury it
with shields tomorrow, probably no chance there too

That's what he's saying. We've kept the cup for 2 years straight on ties.
>>77305294
Thats not how that works

I misread it. I thought he meant the Cubs would win in a tie formality.

It's time to relax bruh. This game has been lost for a while now. You want them to bring out Swarzak again for like the 3rd day in a row?
>>77305344
Meant for >>77305326
>>77305344
I'm just still mad at timmay really and taking out my anger on all who come in
yeah its over
what a shit game
>that swing
>>77305355
The retaliation was so underwhelming. I was hoping for a headshot against Lackey or a brawl.
You know Maddon left Lackey in the batting order just to get beaned.
It just pisses me off so much that they hit 3 straight batters to load the bases and then timmay goes first pitch swinging. Its just yet another fuck up adding onto his already horrendous season. I dont think even beckhams sophomore slump was this bad if he even had one I dont fucking remember. Can't really send him down either in this pointless season. and benching him doesnt seem to work. I mean fuck its so infuriating they couldnt make them pay and we dug that deep hole cause of a mistake by rodon and ah fuck just all around a painful shitty was fucking game
and tomorrow is shields
wow
Those balls were in the strike zone so he had no choice but to take hacks. But still a bit disappointing Schwarber didn't get on base.
>>77305378
If the Who intentionally threw at Lackey. Maddon would have ordered everyone on the pitching staff to start throwing at your team like he did against the Tardnials. Allegedly.
>'We don't start stuff, but we will end stuff'
>>77305378
no thats fucking stupid
retailiate by tacking those runs on him
fuck timmay for not doing that
>>77305427
This 2bh. No point getting into a brawl or bean war with a team that has no reason to be on the same field as the cubs
holmrunberg manages to not give up a home run
a miracle
>Every Cubs starter has struck out today
The superior Rondon now pitches.
yolmeme pls
>>77305483
>you
Based DH yolmeme!!!
>Zobrist
That looked more like Avi.
Please get him in
Oh look, it's another Who on third with zero outs.
I've seen this episode today already.
Engel bitte
He'll walk Engel and then an unassisted triple play by Baez happens.
Rondon giving it all back
he was safe at first
>>77305544
They'll get them with a double play.
>it's a sox offense episode
Safe as fuark
>>77305559
looked safe tho
Can't overturn that call. Too close
>>77304944
I work at Uic too.... haaaaaaaa
How do you blow that call? Jesus H the Cubs get nearly every close call and cry about the few they don't.
that is a crock of shit
>>77305566
The call was out, based on the footage there might not be enough to conclusively say he was safe. If he was called safe, they'd keep that call as well.
AND IT STANDS
Good call. Go Cubs.
>>77304944
>>77305580
Is it still the same draconian shithole as I remember it? I remember the library being unusable because of the remodel.
god fucking damn it you useless fucking shit saladshit fuck you
so many fucking opportunities this game and we miss all of them
>>77305594
I was looking at a shot of Salad's foot on the bag with the ball on the ground. At this point, I think MLB is just tired of all the angry hate mail they get from Cubs fans so they're giving them every close call.
>clipshit
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH FUCK
Fuck this game so much
fuck you timmay
fuck you saladshit
What the fuck? Happ was out by a mile.
>>77305615
The ball was in Rizzo's mitt before Sox player's foot was on the bag. The question is did Rizzo have it 'secure' before the runner's foot hit the bag. That's where they can't say he was conclusively safe.
As I said before, it was extremely close, so even if the call was safe and the Cubs challenged it, the call would stand because it wouldn't be conclusive to say he was out.
Good steal by Happ. Good throw by the Who's catcher though.
>>77305602
State is broke af but somehow they get money to remodel shit. They just remodeled Daley Library 2 years ago and remodeled Library on Medical campus side last year. I worked on both projects for Capital Programs department
>>77305643
>The ball was in Rizzo's mitt before Sox player's foot was on the bag.
Wrong.
Rest of post disregarded.
Fuck you clippard fuck you
Thank you for taking Clippard off our hands!
Ian Happ is a good player. I'm excited to see what he does next season after he's less of a rookie.
At least were wasting Clipshit in an already lost game
fuck you timmay fuck you saladshit
>>77305657
Your opinion doesn't jive with the officiating crew. So it's moot. But to humor you. Say he was safe and the Who gets a run. it would be 7-3.
>Almora does it again!
Dexter who?
Fuck you Theo...why is randon and rizzo still on this team...tread them for a closer and relievers. jensen is available
Congrats on the Platinum Sombrero
Curveball in the dirt and send this kid home with a platinum fedora.
Baez 0-4 with 4 SOs. Watch Sox give him a HR
baez just doesn't care anymore
>>77305663
give us back our chapman
Why doesn't almora get more playing time lads. When the fuck will Baez learn to not swing at everything
>>77305691
Platinum Sombrero you retarded lifelong.

Nope.
5 strikeouts and counting. He's the only thing the Sox can rely on

Still hitting pretty well despite it
bring in the Korean
die or die time
then its shields and the big mike
fuck
>>77305715
He hits well when he's in the lineup. He cant hit shit when he pinch hits
mike needs to go back to the bullpen
>>77305706
Actually, no one knows what to call it because it never happens to hitters that aren't about to be DFA'd.
A game with 3 HBP in a row, and a guy with 5 strikeouts. Art.
spinner giveaway the cubs are so coolness
>>77305745
does his son still play for the 49ers
>>77305703
>Wanting Chapman when we got Davis.
Maddon made sure to break Chapman by overusing him in the playoffs before he gave them back to the Yankees. It's really showing.
>>77305715
Beaz had this exact same problem earlier in the year and last year. Where he had no discipline. But was able to fix it. It looks like he's regressing again. The Cubs will stick it out with him because of his god tier defense though
>>77305736
He was put back in the bullpen after Hendricks came back from the DL.
oh yeah sure NOW single melky...
>>77305754
i dunno, i only watch when the patriots play
>>77305754
theres no way in hell he's still on the team after the miffed return in the super bowl

eesh not a good day at all after getting hit twice
Well boys its been fun

Nevermind, I had a stupid moment.
still waiting for Tim Anderson dfa announcement
>>77305857
There has to be intent on the part of the pitcher or bad blood between the teams for an Ump to start handing out warnings usually. In Lackey's case, there was no reason to give out warnings because it was a control issue. And you know the fact that he loaded the bases with no outs doing that. Even if the ump was going to issue warnings by the 3rd hit batsmen for the inning. What would be the point? If he hit a 4th batter it would mean the Who get a run out of it.
Thanks for boosting the Dinosaur man's confidence with that gem of an inning he pitched to get out of the jam.
>>77304444
Quads of truth.
>>77305927
well CLEARLY he was hitting his way to andershit
>>77305927
>And you know the fact that he loaded the bases with no outs doing that
There was 1 out with the first HBP, and 2 outs with the second and third. Not that it really matters.
>>77305942
Proof it
>>77305948
I stand by my comment that loading up the bases by continuing to hit batsmen shouldn't begot a warning.
>>77305976
it was obvious sarcasm
>>77305976
I agree with you, just correcting your info.
>>77305980
>>77305983

Could the sox just roll over for the next 2 games so the cubs can take first place? C'mon, it should have been part of the deal during the Quintana trade.
